@classicstober day 16 prompt: Typhon

There's nothing quite like mother's love...

In some sources, Typhon is the son of Gaea and Tartarus, but other versions of the myth say Hera bore Typhon to spite Zeus after the birth of Athene. When Typhon reached his full power, he challenged Zeus for dominion over the cosmos and very nearly overpowered the king of the gods. He represented devastating storms, and later became associated with volcanic eruptions.
